Q&A

How did you end up in Tucson?

I have lived in Pittsburgh my entire life until 4 years ago.  My daughter and her husband were moving to Tucson with plans of starting a family.  I decided to follow and have been very happy here.

Dogs or cats? 

I love all animals, but, since I am allergic to cats, I live with 2 dogs.  But, I always wished I could have a few farm animals.

What do you enjoy most about working at SIA?

Work is a place where I can show up as my authentic self and don’t have to pretend.  I can just be me.
